I remember Animal Man having Sunshine Superman and Magic Lantern as a hippy themed JLA from another universe. The more pointlessly brutal and poorly plotted DC became, the more I wanted to read about those guys.

I need a scorecard to keep track. I must have missed that, because it's been ages since I've seen something happy from DC. The Continuing Adventures of the Postboot Legion!

It has some interesting issues, but runs out of steam later on as is often the case with the writer, or rather, The Writer.

There was a background character in the Baxter run, who looked to be made out of an Ink like substance. I made a note of it for something in Bits.

A lot of heroes start with a gadget, before it is mysteriously integrated into themselves. Would Lori have got into the Legion if she could manifest powers that might be tailored for a situation. Or would they have been considered to be too unreliable? "...not having to believe in a thing to be interested in it and not having to explain a thing to appreciate the wonder of it."

Invisible Brainiac OP Unseen, not unheard OP Invisible Brainiac Unseen, not unheard Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 84,922 Wouldn't you like to know? I was comparing Nemesis Kid because he had powers that manifested themselves based on the situation. Wasn't the point of thothy's question, would Lori have made it in if her powers were internalized but situational? The Continuing Adventures of the Postboot Legion!

Nemesis Lad's powers were definitely going to get him out of all (but one) situation. But I wasn't sure if Lori's were always that useful.
